Rough Day
Yesterday was a rough day. I'm pretty tired today, so I am just trying to survive.We had a wonderful speaker in our Distinguished American Studies Lecturer, whom I was able to visit with during dinner. Martha Banta, Emeritus Professor at UCLA, gave a great talk. Here's her latest book:
Yes, I'm an academic geek. I know it!
The bad part of yesterday was after I arrived home from the evening talk. We still have my brother's dog (still escaping the Floriday hurricane), and he doesn't like our dog very much. The two got into an ugly tussle, my husband went to intervene, and he was chomped. So, we went to the emergency room. Not fun. Everything is fine, but it took some stitches and antibiotics.
I knitted all of 5 rows of my daughter's poncho. This weekend I'm planning on big knitting. Look out!
